The Heaviest White
The Heaviest White is a poetic inquiry into the symbolic and moral weight of the white coat within the landscape of the U.S. maternal mortality. Through layered imagery and reflective narrative, the poem examines silence, complicity, and professional responsibility as they operate within medical authority when mothers die preventable deaths. Centered in a first-person clinician perspective, the piece engages in moral reckoning and self-accountabi…
Beyond “Maria”
Maternal mortality and morbidity are enduring public health crises disproportionately affecting Black, Indigenous, Hispanic, and other marginalized populations. This inequity highlights the necessity for a comprehensive, equity-driven framework to address systemic failures within maternal healthcare. Although the Maternal Mortality Review Information Application (MMRIA) provides valuable retrospective insights into maternal deaths, its capabiliti…
The Continued Significance of Obstetric Violence
Static and dynamic factors underlying placement instability in residential youth care
Placement instability in residential youth care is an important issue. Youth in residential care have the highest number of previous placements compared to youth in other types of out-of-home care (e.g., foster care), and the high number of previous placements can be experienced as traumatic events. Placement instability is associated with negative outcomes for youth, such as mental health problems. However, there is no review of the factors asso…
Unaccompanied, but not alone
Perspectives of unaccompanied refugee children, their foster carers and guardians on placement success
This study examined multi-informant discrepancies (between child, carer, and guardian perspectives) regarding placement success of 39 foster placements, as well as possible factors associated with these discrepancies. We also examined whether these discrepancies in placement success at baseline measurement (T0) are related to placement breakdown at second measurement (T1). The results showed that when placements are rated with a high average plac…
Fidelity and flexibility of care activities in child-centered youth care for children growing up in families experiencing complex and multiple problems
Researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in the field of child and family welfare have emphasized the need for child-centered services for children growing up in families experiencing complex and multiple problems (FECMP). However, the provision of evidence-based services for these children requires knowledge of the care activities of these services. The aim of this study was to investigate care activities and considerations related to the ca…
Cultural matching factors, child factors and fostering factors associated with successful foster placement
This paper presents findings from the baseline measurement of a longitudinal Dutch study focusing on cultural matching, child and fostering factors associated with the success of foster placements of unaccompanied refugee children. We assessed the placement from the perspectives of the children, their foster carers and their guardians. The children (n = 39) and their carers (n = 37) were visited at their homes, where they completed several questi…
It can never be as perfect as home’
Research shows that highly supportive living arrangements, such as foster care, can provide an environment that meets the needs of unaccompanied children (i.e. fewer internalizing problems, higher quality of the child-rearing environment). However, there is limited research into the experiences of these children in (cultural) foster care. The aim of this study is to explore the experiences of former unaccompanied refugee children and unaccompanie…
Association of Geography and Ambient Air Pollution with Urine Metal Concentrations in Six US Cities
We investigated the associations of urinary concentrations of antimony, cadmium, tungsten and uranium with geographic locations and with ambient air pollution in 304 adults in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis from six US cities. After adjustment for sociodemographics, body mass index, and smoking status, urinary cadmium was the highest in Winston-Salem among all study sites (the geometric mean [GM] in Winston-Salem was 0.84 μg/L [95% con…
Optimizing foster family placement for infants and toddlers
The relationship between foster children and their foster carers comes with many risks and may be very stressful both for parents and children. We developed an intervention (foster family intervention [FFI]) to tackle these risks. The intervention focuses on foster children below the age of 5 years. The objective was to investigate the effects of FFI on the interactions between foster parents and foster children. A randomized control trial was ca…
Ambient air pollution and racial/ethnic differences in carotid intima-media thickness in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (Mesa)
BACKGROUND: In the USA, ethnic disparities in atherosclerosis persist after accounting for known risk factors. Ambient air pollution is associated with increased levels of atherosclerosis and differs in the USA by race/ethnicity. We estimated the influence of ambient air pollution exposure to ethnic differences in common carotid intima-media thickness (IMT). METHODS: We cross-sectionally studied 6347 Caucasian-American, African-American, Hispanic…
Peer Acceptance and Friendships of Students with Disabilities in General Education
To understand the difficulties students with disabilities experience in their social participation in general education, this study examined which child, peer, and class variables relate to peer acceptance and friendships. In a cross‐sectional study, sociometric data were gathered for students without disabilities ( N = 985) and students with disabilities ( N = 65), together with personal related variables of students with disabilities, attitudes…
L'étude des relations entre générations aux Pays-Bas
Vers une plus grande homogamie d'âge entre conjoints
Les contemporains comme les historiens ont considéré que la différence d'âge au mariage était un excellent indicateur du caractère de la relation conjugale. Sont ici analysés trois mécanismes qui pourraient déterminer l'âge de l'époux choisi : les préférences culturelles en faveur d'un âge donné, le rôle joué par les tierces personnes et la structure du «marché matrimonial ». Au cours du XIXe siècle, ces trois mécanismes ont joué si bien qu'ils o…
Microsimulation methods for population projection
Van Imhoff (Evert), Post (Wendy). - Méthodes de micro-simulation pour des projections de population La micro-simulation se distingue de la macro-simulation traditionnelle, en utilisant un échantillon plutôt que la population totale, en travaillant au niveau de données individuelles plutôt que de données agrégées, et en se basant sur des expériences aléatoires répétées plutôt que sur des nombres moyens. Nous présentons ici les circonstances sous l…
Reconstructing the Extended Kin-network in the Netherlands with Genealogical Data
This paper discusses the use of genealogical data for the study of the historical development of kinship networks in the Netherlands 1830-1990. There are two main problems in using genealogies: the year of death is missing for a sizeable part of the research population; and the information available on all relevant branches is far from complete. A mixed estimation procedure was used to impute the missing years of death. Overcoming the second prob…
